Are footballers too well paid or not?

Nowadays, footballers are very well paid, some people think that it's too much for what they do. Others think it's is fair what they earn, because they have to save money as they have a very short profesional life and the team can dismiss them when the coach or the directive want.

Apart from the football money, they get more money than this in advertising, sometimes more than they earn in their team.

One of the disadvantages is that they have a poor family life as they are travelling the majority of time. Although they have a strong social life, for example dinners for the club, for the adverts...

Personally, I think that they earn for his efford and that what they receive is OK, because everybody knows how hard is the life of a football player, and besides everybody would like to be a famous footballer, in part for the money that they earn.

Original or pirate music?

Everybody in the world is listening to music almost once a day.

Everywhere you go music is on, in supermarkets and every kind of shops.

Some years ago CD’s were sold like hot cakes, everybody bought the CD of their favorite group as there wasn’t another way to have it. However, nowadays the Internet has appeared, and with this prodigious system you can download every kind of music without paying a euro, so what does everybody do? Download it from the Internet.

Artists continue selling lots of CD’s but there’s no comparison to years ago and they want to stop it.

From my point of view, artists should bring the prices of CD’s down because you pay almost 20 euros for a CD that contains ten songs, and it’s a robbery!

Moreover, today there’s the new machine: mp3! With that you don’t need to buy a CD, you simply have to put it to your computer and I think that this has perjudiced a lot in this way.

To sum up, both parts should pull their weight and things should go better, both parts would be satisfied.

SECOND OF BACHILLERAT IS FINISHING

Now, students of second of bachillerat around the world are in the worst time of the year. They will finish the course aproximatly on May 16st.
The students recently have had a week of holidays and just now they began the last term of the course. Teachers are nervous to preparate their students for the next selectivity. They want good marks for everyone. The students have a lot of work in a short period of time and day a day they became more nervous.
Probably this is the first time when the students have too much work to do and they aren't used to these situations.
Aproximatly in twoo weeks the exams will began and later they (the students) will stay in the last proves.
Second of bachillerat is the shortest course and the students have to pass all the exams to go out (to the university, work...) next year.
I'm a student of second of bachillerat this year. I'm really nervous for the last exams.
I wish I passed correctly this course and begin what I really like next year.

Every day, every moment, every second...

There are some days we feel sad, without any goal to achieve without happiness...

I don’t like these days because you don’t enjoy them because you can’t! Everyone have had these kind of days but luckily we usually feel good and take profit of all the chances which life give us. Sad days are only good for one thing, they help you to realise how important is to enjoy every day, every moment, every second because they won’t happen any more.

I love waking up, putting cheerful music and beginning the day with a big smile hoping a fantastic journey with people known and unknown.

My wish, enjoying life as much as possible!

Art?

Nowadays, there has been a revolution in the world of art, sometimes it surpasses the limits. But, where is really the border? Is art all the things which are shown in a museum? Theoretically, the art is the expression of our feelings through a different way than the ordinary, transmitting beauty with words, colours, sounds, etc.. But not everybody has the same idea of beauty and that is what causes this problem. I don't agree that a toilet is a work of art and the same happens with a dissected animal or with a leak on the ceiling, but all these things are shown today in important museums. Maybe the world is a bit crazy or perhaps today beauty is different than the idea of beauty which Velazquez had when he painted "Las Meninas". I think that everyone has got his or her own idea of beauty and art, because feelings are the most complicated thing in the world.

My ideal job

Joggers who get up early and run through the park, executives who try to work off stress with a game, and people who do bodybuilding may all be shortening their lives. The secret to a long and happy life is… being lazy. Of course! I don’t say that work it’s bad but in other words, I think when you have time to enjoy your personal life, you work much better. People who work 50 or 60 hours a week don’t have any time at all and this is very important. Sometimes these eat very badly because his lunch hour (about half past and hour or less time) isn’t enough to have a proper meal. Maybe they earn a lot of money but… is it worth it?

The right job is that where you would like to work as part of a team, enjoy all the time, know listening to people, have overtime to dedicate your private life with your family, friends and good timetable. If you have a good job, you will probably happy and get a big salary. The money doesn’t important until up to a point. It helps for some things and satisfies more.

I hate jobs that wear a uniform, must be get up early, work l& ong hours at night and weekends. I think that work it could be peaceful and contribute a happy and grateful life.

SMOKERS – NON SMOKERS

Actually, we can see some debates of smokers and non smokers in the mass media.
Recently, the law that forbide smoking in some public places causes a big discussion. People who smoke say that they nedd a cigarette with the coffe, beer, chocolate and in their breakfast, and in the afternoon too (for example) and non smoker people say that the smoke annoys them a lot.
Is the solution to this problem to separate this two types of people in different public places?
Personally, I think it’s a difficult situation, because nowadays there a lot of people who smoke.
I think that there are some situations that the smoke annoys another people a lot, for example in restaurants, but it isn’t necessary to separate people in the bars.
There are different situations when people should have to learn to conform and be more patient.

Time to make decisions

This year is the last one for us, the most important course. Lots of things are in our heads, to have the bests marks, think about what degree we should choose and how are going to be our tests to enter to university.
We are too young to make a desicion that is going to chance our future. Nowadays, almost only 30 % of the people of my generation knows what they want to study and later to work.
Moreover, we are only teenagers and we want to live our lives and worry about nothing. We need to be free but we have to get used to adult life.Therefore, this last year in high school tries to change a little bit our mids, our concerns, to make us realise the importance of this last period of school.
So, it's a difficult year for us, like I've said before, time to make decisions and these ones are the most important that we have ever made. And now I think I'm the one that should think more about what I will do with my future, I haven't taken a decision yet.

Spring is coming

I like spring very much, because I like when the flowers are blossing, the weather is not as cold as in winter and days are longer.

In the lasts years the weather has changed a lot, because of the greenhouse effect which affects people, animals and the temperature of the atmosphere. The seasons of the year are changing too much, so there are some good and bad things in our lives with these changes.
One bad thing is that when the weather should be good is very cold, so we come back to the winter and it happens the same with the trees and the plants, and the consequences are terrible, because the trees get frozen.
Another bad thing for people are the allergies caused by the pollution and for the changes of the weather.

I would like that the weather and the seasons would be like before, that everywhere had got appropiate climate to the season.

Trying to improve

At last I'm eighteen so the last sunday I could go to vote for these new elections of the government of Spain. Some days before, I was really happy and excited because it was the firts time for me, but not all the people felt like me. I spoke with some friends who are already eighteen and some of them told me that they wouldn't go to vote. Their reasons were good. They don't trust the politicians and think that any one of them think really with us. Nowadays, we have got a lot of problems in this society. For the youngsters & is impossible to do some kind of things like live alone and rent or buy an apartment. Another important problem is the job and money. Now, salaries are too lower in comparison with prices of the most of the things, specially for the young people who sometimes have a lot of problems to find a well paid job, and many times they have to work and study at the same time. Everybody say that we are the future but if we continue for this way, our future will be very hard. I agree with my friends and for this reason, yesterday, I went to vote, because I hope that things can be better and we are who have to try it.

Job risks

It is said, that there are too many job accidents but did you ask yourself why?
Many people are hurt or killed every year while they are working. Danger is everywhere, in a house, in a school, in a factory, on the roads...
Everybody who has people working for himself looks after him workers' safety. But even though, things are not so clear.
A manager may think that he has everything under control, but if his workers don't carry out the law, for example wearing a helmet, the security is out.
Fortunately,nowadays the law watches out for all of those who don't obey the rules and if security is not carried out literally, a high punishment might happen to them.

I'm a driver

On 17th of January I had the driving exam, and I pass it . But now the problem is the car. My parents have got two cars but one of theme is very old and it doesn't work ok. So we have to drive the same car. Some of our problems are where we put the car The solution could be to write on a paper where the car is. That way, we all know the situation of the car.

My parents asked me to buy a second hand car, but it's not a necessity for me. I live near the school and the next year I'm going to study in Lleida or in Barcelona and there are so public transports.

In my opinion, the car makes lots of problems but If I had one which was mine, I wouldn't have such problems as I have today.

the computer games

I think that playing with a computer games is interesant, because the children can learn diferent leanguages. In addition, this is a good thing, because the kids can open his mind with an entertained way. Also, playing with games can gice to the children, skill and more concentration to apply in the real life. But sometimes, the children playing with a computer games for a long time and this is bad for their eyes and their mind. I think that the parents are the responsable of their children and they have to tell them when they have to stop to play with the games.

EDUCATION ?

Some days ago, the news showed us that our level of education is under the other Europe countries.
Lots of things makes this information true, the most important is that we usually give up studies at 16 to start working. Giving up our studies at this age means that pupils are not motivated to continue, more things could be said, but it is innecessary.
Citizens and rulers have to find solutions to this problem, they need to improve our cultural level. Should teachers study more? Should politicians help people who want to continue their studies? Should people have more goals in their life?
We don't know, but a thing is true, all people are guilty of our level of education, we all have to try to improve it.
From my point of view, it's a very important subject to discuss, it influences our cultural level and our future life. We have to fight to get what we want, the best education.
